Chapter 82 – She Was Too Careful
Chapter 82 – She Was Too Careful
Anxiety darted through Fabian's mind as Freya's figure faded out of his sight. "Mrs. Fitzgerald is running away! Are you going to move?"
"No."
Fabian wanted to scold Kieran for being a nerd when Kieran said with certainty, "She can't run anywhere!"
Fabian admitted Kieran was right. Mrs. Fitzgerald was his legal wife. She couldn't leave Fitz unless they got a divorce.
After thinking it through, Fabian asked, "Why don't you tell her about the divorce. She had to be with you if you were still married."
"I'm afraid she'll throw a fit," Kieran's voice was calm.
Fabian was familiar with Mrs. Fitzgerald. She would do that if she knew that they hadn't divorced after signing the contract.
"But what're you going to do? Now Seth is making a move on Mrs. Fitzgerald. Do you really want her to become Seth's girlfriend? Someone has told me that Seth has prepared a diamond ring for the proposal when he returns from Africa."
Kieran looked at Fabian as if he was an idiot, "She wants to be a bigamist?"
Fabian choked his words by surprise. Mrs. Fitzgerald couldn't remarry no matter how Seth was desperate to propose to her. Mrs. Fitzgerald was still the legal wife of Fitz.
Fabian started to admire Kieran for his forceful vibe.
Although it was foolproof, Fabian was still worried. "Fitz, what're you going to do? Mrs. Fitzgerald doesn't seem interested in you."
"Take it slowly," Kieran said unhurriedly, "She will love me."
Fabian was struck dumb, but he had to admit that Kieran had great personal charisma.
But Fabian was a bit hotheaded, so Kieran's attitude tortured him. What if it took Kieran over a decade to handle Mrs. Fitzgerald? Fitz has to be single for ten more years!"
On second thought, Fabian decided to give some advice on love. "Fitz, I think you should make it quick. Why don't you offer yourself a slice of fresh meat lying in bed? Look at you! I swear Mrs. Fitzgerald must yield under this face and this body!"
The corners of Kieran's lips twitched. If he appeared naked in front of Freya, he was afraid to scare her to death!
He didn't want to be a widower.
Fabian continued as he took Kieran's silence that he had convinced Kieran. "Fitz, you should learn how to be sexy in bed, like flirting or winking or wiggling. I swear this will work!"
Fabian imitated as he spoke. "Well, like this. Fitz, I promise Mrs. Fitzgerald loves this."
"You want me to be a pussy?" Kieran looked discontented, "I don't do pussy!"
"What pussy? This's called charisma! Do you know what it is?" Fabian shouted, " Today's little girls love this kind of man. Who still likes a crock like you?"
"It kills me when I'm staying with a crock like you! Please give me a pretty girl and save this poor man. I know how to make girls happy!" Fabian felt sorry for himself as it reminded him that he was still single.
"You will be saved tonight," Kieran spoke lightly.
Before Fabian could figure it through, Kieran continued, "I will ask Bradley to bring you ten pretty women from The Heaven."
"Fitz, you are not helping! Everyone knows women from The Heaven are intolerable!" Fabian wailed weakly, "Forget it. I'd rather stay with a crock!"
Kieran was not in the mood for Fabian's whine. His thoughts drifted away as he reflected on Fabian's words. Did he really a boring crock?
Kieran furrowed his brows hard when he thought of how Freya respectfully called him Mr. Fitzgerald. Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
He seemed to appear slightly antiquated in front of Freya. Kieran was only four years older than her Freya, but they looked as if they were from two different generations.
It was not a good sign for a married couple to have such a deep generation gap.
Kieran should bridge the gap…
Kiki took Jayden and Jayla to get groceries in a supermarket for making hot pot as the kids wanted to eat.
After shopping, Kiki intended to buy the other type of her favorite earrings in the jewelry section upstairs.
Kiki saw Penny answer the phone outside the Mystery jewelry store upstairs. Penny was too stunned to speak as she saw Kiki.
She looked at Kiki incredulously, "Kiki, it's you!"
"Yes, it's me. I'm back." Kiki's beautiful face wore an impeccable smile, but it was a fake smile. "Penny, it's been a long time."
It had been a long time that time had already blurred here.
A smile didn't leave Kiki's face, but hatred had flooded in her heart.
Kiki hated Penny more than everyone in her life. If Penny didn't falsely accuse Kiki of killing the child in her womb, Kiki would not have spent the five darkest years in prison, and Kiki wouldn't miscarry!
Kiki knew she had made enemies with Penny from the time they fell in love with the same man.
Kiki was the man's legal wife who contributed herself to her husband. But unluckily, her husband cheated on her. Penny killed the child in her womb to set Kiki up. Her husband mistook Kiki as the murderer and personally sent her to jail.
Kiki gave a self-mocking smile. Would she still desperately save Christ from the fire at her twelve if she had known this earlier?
The answer was yes. Even if Christ treated Kiki badly, she couldn't watch him die.
But the past had faded in the tide of time. Christ still left Kiki no matter how good Kiki was.
Penny stared through Kiki. She hated Kiki's beautiful face as it stole her man!
Suddenly, Penny's face was instantly filled with a smug smile. "Kiki, I will get married to Christ next month. Welcome to our wedding."
